Rock Angel, I'm sorry for that potentially intimidating banter. You're welcome to head out with us lot anytime. Oh and if a man introduces himself to you as a dense loner,  run. ;)

Actually, cancel that wink, do run.

Yours,

Rock Hunk.

I find the thought of the not so innocent and unassuming Fatneck warning people away from me and my esteemed friend Mr Mills, most amusing!  :lol:

It was don't worry! Plans are afoot for a sole thread dedicated to mr dense loner so things like this won't need to confuse you further. Hope you manage to get somewhere good soon.

As for contacting people, a Personal Message can be sent by finding the person you wish to message in the members section, clicking on their name and then using the "Send this person a personal message" option.



Or you can save yourself the hassle and click on the little speech bubble icon underneath people's avatars/usernames  ;)

i will be heading to pex tonight with a well knowlegeable local (been climbing round here for, well, years). Pisa wall has some great eliminate lines to go at and as for lady jane wall, i've become hooked on it recently. If you happen to see this reply defore hand, i'll be there around 6/7ish (tallish bloke with shaved hair) and staying for a wee lamplight session on lady jane wall and would be happy to point out the blokes to stay away from some decent problems out

have just decided that i am a scaredy cat. Have looked at frodshum and pexhill in the book and there is virtually nothing I think i could do. They are all to high for me with getting scared. need some low boulders and easy problems. really novice stuff to try first. If they exist. :-[

Rock Angel. It's very simple...

It's him



Not really into Sean Bean. Vin diesel is much better!!
Or me


The baby looks scared!!!

Collectively, the North West Lot


The one in the middle has bigger boobs than me.

Or collectively, Jasper's lot



Why is there a picture of two lads in the same bed looking at pr0n on a laptop with one of them pulling there own nipples?



Barring a propensity for the latter, I'll see you at Frodsham.

I've misrepresented myself sorry Rock Angel. I just typed in 'hunk' into google and those were the images thrown at me. For what it's worth, I don't believe one of those losers to be what I'd term a hunk.

Jokes aside, you'd be fine at Pex Hill on the eliminate wall as meatball suggests.

Happy hunking!

You'll be fine at Pex, if you go with one of these 'hunks' to spot you and a mat  ;)

Lady Jane Wall is quite scary but there's a lot of problems with crux's near the bottom (i'm sure no one will shout if you don't top them out) and there's a few traverses that are really nice!! -> great place to improve footwork and finger strength!

People choosing not to top out said lines will find the padding swiftly removed before they can plan any downwards escape  :whistle: ;)

If you're not happy topping out at first then just go as high as you feel you want to then jump off or more sensibly climb down. I've fallen nearly the full length of Pisa Wall in control and hit my small pad and been fine with no spotters.

I think the pex hill ethics commitee of Popp, Simm, Chadders, Porkie and Farley will have to be consulted as to the legitimacy of any claimed ascents that finish prematurely at a random break  :rtfm:

I dunno, Rich. Can you jump of from the break on Black Magic? Don't worry about him, RA. He's just upset because everyone says he is taller than he is strong (which is damn true!) Climb how you like but don't base your 8a.nu scorecard on it  :)

Now then Hunt... your ascent of Breakaway finishing at the niche must surely be called into question and put before the board  :spank:  ;)

Go as high as you feel and then jump off? In that case I flashed monoblock. And you can't call Crouch weak either!

Yeah but by Crouch's standards it also means you've done nothing at Pex  :P

He wouldn't even go up Algripper  ::)

He did give me a ride home though which was nice. I don't believe we've met, Nicci, but you're Leeds and Liverpool. Giz a shout if you're after a climb sometime.
